Sunbeds?

Hi everyone,

Is it OK to have sunbeds after your op? Covering the incision scars!

I’ve been told not to let the sun get to the scars for the 1st year as they will heal more unoticeable.

Can you also have sunbeds close to your operation? I heard darker skin means darker scars but not sure if a tan on white skin counts?

Something I’m curious to know about.

Thanks x x x

No hun dont think you can x

Dr Adamo told me as long as u keep the actual scars out of the sun / covered then its fine – i would say wait a few weeks after op though… xx

I went on sun bed 2 weeks after my operation. Just make sure u keep the scars covered and out of the sun for alteast a year. If u cover them you will be fine, i just put plasters over mine xxx

i was told NO sunbeds for 6 weeks coz the skin is stretched and sensitive, i waited till the 6 week mark i now just cover my scars when i go on xx

i went on 4 days after my op and just covered the scars and mine were fine then after about 6 weeks i never covered them an the scars are still fine xx

I went on after 6 weeks & dont cover as I always forget to take plasters! Ops

I went on Sunbed 1 week after c section & returning is fine!

Scars r scars aren’t they! 
